Restaurants Thursday food links: Joel fired, Blais and others on 'Top Chef'
Posted by Besha Rodell @BeshaRodell on Thu, Feb 26, 2009 at 2:46 PM
John Kessler reports on the firing of Joel Antunes from the Oak Room. (Thanks to foodieman for the tip, also).
Blais blogs about Hosea's "Top Chef" win. I also like this Epicurious blog about how to make next season better.

I'm that blogger re: product placement. It's annoying and aggravating. It bugs me every time during any of the challenges they make sure they have some product's logo right in front of the camera. And unless Padma wants to stop smoking the pot, a speech coach ain't gonna help that girl any. There's a reason she sounds that sleepy. ;)

The best comment regarding product placement at my house last night was my husband saying "Santa Margarita Pinot Grigio?! I'd rather drink a Colicchio-pimped diet coke."
Fair enough, but I have to admit the Colicchio Diet Coke made me feel dirty, and so not in a good way.
We were walking this morning in Freedom Park and were amused to see that Pacific Kitchen is now called Park's Edge! I took the effort to check the menu. $7-8 for appetizers, $15-20 for entrees. Over/Under until this place gets a new name? 6 months.
